Doesn't sound like too much of a headache doing it yourself. Nice work
 I just don't trust the standard jack which the car comes equipped with, otherwise known as the 'jack of death'. The thought of doing some sort of emergency repair or risky tyre change at the side of the road using that jack makes me wince. I keep a cheap 2t trolley jack in my boot and just use that with an ice hockey puck (essentially just a rubber block) or piece of thick folded cardboard since the circular generic plate on the trolley jack won't snuggly slot into any of the shapes found on the D3 jacking points.

I've found the standard Audi jack not to be too bad on the D2's I had. Then again most things i've done have been in my factory with a nice flat concrete floor so pretty much ideal. I've always added blocks, stands etc as while the cars are light for their size i don't fancy one in my face (did a lot of gearbox work on my old one).
I wouldn't work with just a trolly jack in there either. 'elf and saftey an' all that!
